L. WOLFSON'S MILLINERY.

1t lie probably one of the most difficult
undertakings TO attempt the description
OF fret class millinery establishment;
this is specially the case when viewing
the many-fOld devices, shapes, shades,
forms and style OF the multifOrum STOCK
of the millinery department at "WOlt
sons Fashion Bazaar" The assortment
OF unfinished head dress In the wsy OF
hats and bOnnets in their various mate
rails and qualities, are immense, and no
lady need go away without making a
choice and selecting her trimmings.
while all can be suited or get matched
In colOrs to their respective dresses. 1t
Is here in place to shy that
the brims OF the new hats
are cspriciOusly shaped, turning up
deeply on one side, short at the back
and projecting over the face; they, as
already stated NOTED, two toned and
striped. Among the prominent styles
may be mentioned as again fashionable,
feather turbsns made OF tips Of
Pbeasants or doves. Feathers generally
have again become part OF the leading
styles, especially those largely long and
slender In shape rather than round. The
low crowned "TOques" OF English styles
are becoming highly fashionable for
shopping and travelling purposes and are
well adapted to high or low couture.
The "BO peep" or pointed poke"
bonnet worn without strings will again
be quite q figure during the coming
season, and highly fashionable. Scotch
turbans come 10 the market with low
crowns, but high trimmings 10
front. For little girls from four to
the teens, small pokes OF felt or round
sailor shapes turned up In black, quaint.
anff.arnwnpn hnnnQfl nf lnrah m
cashmere, will command prominent
enquiry through the season, and while
the crowns OF little girls and misses are
considerably lower the loops OF ribbons
or velvets with which they are trimmed
will give the height required. Among
the manv oddities OF trimming material,
may be mentioned beads OF every size
and style, in new compositions, forms
and shapes, have just been received;
cock plumes, fancy feathers and wings,
new ribbons In endless variety, odd com
binatiOns that surpass anything 10 rich
ness, color or quality, have been i'm
ported. One Of the greatest novelties of
the season will be boas Of ostrich feath-
ers; of these all black or black and white
will be the most favored. 70 sum 1t up
IL will be seen that diversity will be the
prevailing characteristic Of the coming
millinery season.
The display OF the millinery depart
ment at l. Wolfson's bazaar Is now In
readiness, and no better place could be
found 10 choose your Christ mas present

are hereby given special Invitation to
